I Couldn't Say It Better

Not Pretty Enough - A Song by Kasey Chambers

 One of the constant theme's in my dating life so far has been that I am "the other woman" and while I WILL NOT get involved with someone who is in another relationship, I wonder why it is that I am always the 2nd choice.  It would be nice to be first choice sometime.  It seems that the only time that I'm first choice is where I don't like the guy in a romantic way (and yes, I see the irony).

The song is worth listening to, but I'm including the lyrics as well:

Am I not pretty enough
Is my heart too broken
Do I cry too much
Am I too outspoken
Don’t I make you laugh
Should I try it harder
Why do you see right through me
I live
I breathe
I let it rain on me
I sleep
I wake
I try hard not to break
I crave
I love
I’ve waited long enough
I try as hard as I can
chorus
I laugh
I feel
I make believe it’s real
I fall
I freeze
I pray down on my knees
I hope
I stand,
I take it like a man
I try as hard as I can
chorus
why do you see
why do you see
why do you see right through me
….
We’re all pretty enough.
And we all try as hard as we can.
I see you.
Let someone know that they are not invisible.
